Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the TYN16-600RTQ is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Off-state voltage rating: 600V
• RMS on-state current rating: 16A
• Gate trigger voltage (Vgt) maximum: 1.3V
• Gate trigger current (Igt) maximum: 25mA
• On-state voltage drop (Vtm) maximum: 1.5V
• Hold current (Ih) maximum: 40mA
• SCR recovery type: Standard Recovery
• Package and mounting: TO-220-3 through-hole configuration
• Operating temperature range: -40°C to 150°C

Parts meeting all these parameters are classified as parametric equivalents and may be used interchangeably in circuit applications without design modification.
